Quality Control

Our 2-Amino-1-[3-(Trifluoromethyl)Phenyl]Ethanol is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and chiral analysis, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical and fine chemical applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
